The Rising Sons: China''s Imperial Succession & The Art of War recollects 2,000 years of China''s history by examining how some of its most representative imperial rulers seized power by applying tactics and strategies from Sun Tzu''s The Art of War. This volume brings together tales of the nine princes of the Qin to Qing dynasties who rose to power through their cunning wit and prowess at psychological warfare. Brimming in equal measure with narrative interest and analytical insight, this book is as much a page turner about human greed, ambition and its capacity for cruelty as it is a treatise on power dynamics and court politics.
